Thoughts, which seems to sort of a Human Failing for all of us. How does this Technology Deal with that . Yeah. Well, personally i gotta tell you now even as a neurosurgeon myself, i learned so much about these braincomputer interfaces. I mean, were all learning, but one of the things to keep in mind is even after the devices implanted, it takes months to accomplish exactly what youre talking about. Aaron so he had an implanted than several months later when they i actually started to try and control things in his environment and during the time in between, its focusing on actually developing that concentration, understanding how to actually think about something, and have it result in an action. Its not how we are programmed to do things. We lift our hand, we do something right away here you just have to think about it and recognize that thats going to result in some sort of outcome. So its not immediate. Youre going to hear about these implants being put in but then it will be months before you hear about them actually doing something for the individual because they need to train over and over again for months all sanjay. Thank you so much. Got it. Thank you thanks for watching. The lead starts now and welcome to the lead. Im Kaitlan Collins in for jake tapper on this friday ahead this hour, were reporting that his first here on cnn as we are now hearing from multiple sources telling cnn about what could be a another spy balloon found off the coast of the United States. Plus star players taking the court, the nba is lebron james in College Basketballs stand out, Caitlin Clark, their chance to make history by doing what they do best the Sports Legend himself, bob costas well be here to talk about it. But first, leading this hour, a major announcement from President Biden today, who renewed his call for an immediate ceasefire between israel and hamas for at least six weeks in gaza. Their goal to get more hostages released from hamas and get more aid into gaza. The president said the us plans to airdrop that desperately needed food and supplies into the war ravaged area. Here he was at the white house, sitting next to the italian prime minister, just a few moments ago. Aid flowing to gaza is nowhere nearly enough. Now its nowhere nearly enough. Innocent lives are on the line and childrens lives around the line. And we wont stand by and let so we get more aid in. I wont standby. We wont let up and were not going to pull out kind of pull out every stop we can get more assistance in that announcement from President Biden comes at the end of the week were Horrors Of War were on full display yesterday. We saw what happened in gaza just pure chaos. When desperation turned deadly as trucks that were carrying much needed aid or swarmed by hundreds of starving people as were still working to confirm all of the grim details, what we do know is that Israeli Forces opened fire, arguing that their soldiers needed to protect themselves. Reports from gaza on the ground say that that sparked the trucks speed off and then crushing people in the crowd as they did so, leading to more than 100 people killed, hundreds more injured cnn, i should note, cannot independently verify those numbers at this time. But we did spend weeks working to reveal the facts of an earlier tragic moment. Cnns Jomana Karadsheh and a team of cnn journalist in unprecedented detail, documented one attack that killed more than half the members of one single family. I do want to warn you before you see this report that it contains disturbing video depicting dead bodies every patient here has a harrowing account of survival but it is the story of this one young woman and as youll see, would become key to uncovering an atrocity that until today had been hidden in the dark theyre all gone. I have no one left, 18 yearold druber of the juba told us she offered few clues as to what had happened to her and her family but a week later, a Cameraman Working For Cnn In Gaza was out filming as hes done every day for months he was one of the first to arrive in this area just after Israeli Forces had withdrawn. It was on that day, january 14, when he stumbled upon the scene of a horrific incident first, we had no idea this was connected to the bar until they start pulling documents from the rubble. Its gauses grim routine of trying to identify the dead then the startling discovery later that day, cnn producer abuse selfman screens the footage and sees roombas id this is where she was critically injured and the bodies are the remains of her family. Tiny corpses carried on blankets and in the corner, a woman sits covered in flies in her decomposing arms. A young man. But we still didnt really know what had happened here. It would be really helpful, especially if we could go through the Satellite Images, Disk Grisly Discovery was the start of a weekslong cnn investigation. We tracked down seven survivors, gathered video, satellite imagery, Israeli Military press releases we verified social media content and spoke with ballistic and forensic experts, allowing us to piece together the events of a bloody night of death and h4, amid intense and discriminant Israeli Military fire that left civilians dead we started by asking the idf about the incident, giving them pictures and exact coordinates the military said their troops had come under fire from that location on january 4. And they responded with a precise strike to remove an imminent threat and can confirm if the bodies are linked to that strike our investigation raises serious questions about the idfs actions that day this is where it all unfolded. Theres a wider area of salaheddin street. Before the war, it was an industrial zone. But israel designated Salaheddine The Evacuation Corridor out of Northern Gaza Business Owners allowed hundreds of displaced people to stay in these warehouses. Suddenly in early january, war arrived on their doorstep. Eyewitnesses say The Warehouses on both sides of the road. We recreated in this 3d model were repeatedly struck from the ground and air families sheltering in The Warehouses on the left broke holes through back walls, escaping into the farmlands. For The Warehouse on the right, there was no escape for most. They were surrounded. They say the israeli shot at anyone who tried to walk out, something. The idf denies we tracked down robas mother and three siblings, separated from her during the attack. They confirmed that among the bodies, our cameramen filmed were five of ruba siblings. The youngest among them was zheng he was ten, and ali 13 what likely killed most of them was the shockwave from a massive 2000 pound bomb, according to Forensic Pathologists and Weapons Experts who examined are footage in satellite imagery, the Blast Shockwave is so powerful that it can rupture the lungs leaving victims to drown in their own blood. What the family didnt know was that roba was still alive, bleeding for four long days among the dead after our january 7 interview, we tried to find her again lost in the chaos of overwhelmed hospitals after weeks of searching, we found her miles away and refer receiving treatment with the israelis were outside shooting im started firing bombs. We were all injured and fell to the ground with robot desperate for help and her Little Brother Ali Fighting for his life for days. Israeli forces were right outside Satellite Images from january 5, one day after the attack show idf vehicles by The Warehouse and freshly bulldozed ground is closest 70 meters from where the siblings lay oh, my Family Members who are still alive left a relative a nice day. Mckend, they started bulldozing the place and dumped it on top of the dead people my siblings she and her relative felt they had to get out of this shelter, turned morgue. They decided to make a daring escape and were questioned by soldiers about links to hamas before making it to the relative safety of a local hospital can confirm these really militarys claim that their troops came under fire. And yet survivors, we spoke to tell us there were no militants in The Warehouses. Some witnesses say they heard what they called resistance fire, and local journalists that day reported clashes in the area cnn found that these really military has separately alleged there were hamas Weapons Facilities nearby, but never linked them to The Warehouse where the abu jibbas sheltered, which weve highlighted here on this idea of map however, it began, there is no doubt these really military used for russias firepower our the size of the bomb bytes nature, indiscriminate and survivors say they were not warned to leave by the military as it claims, it always tries to do in response to extensive questions from cnn, the idf claimed a told civilians to leave in the days before the deadly incident, but provided no evidence when asked we found the first time the military publicly said this part of gaza was no longer a safe Evacuation Route came in this post on x at 11 28 a. M. On january 4th, hours after the attack, id seen them at any level. They knew we were civilians. There. Drone saw everything. We had big white flags up. They said it a safe area. The south is safe. We came to the south for nothing they bombed us and killed are children the south. The events of january day on the small window into the vast undocumented suffering that these really militarys inflicted on civilians in gaza with Tens Of Thousands already killed leaving so many like the abu jibba family, grieving, traumatized, with no recourse to justice and accountability this is ship they died in front of me. I couldnt do anything, but we would love to be silly and play together. You get there. I mean, now those memories are gone. Jomana karadsheh, cnn, london and our thanks to jomana and her entire team for that deep investigative report in response to that report, i should note that the idfs Lieutenant Colonel peter lerner told cnn in part in a statement, quote, when we are going after hamas, after hamas is leadership, and when they are hiding being in the civilian areas, there are civilian consequences. We also heard from a spokesperson for the United Nations Secretary General calling for a full investigation into what was reported. I want to turn now to eylon levy, a spokesperson for the Israeli Government, who joins me here in studio. Its great to have you here at the location. Good to be there in new york. Just first on that that report from jomana i know we heard the idf, but if israel is dropping in 2000 pound bomb wire civilian saying they werent warned about that. It is desperately sudden. It points to the inhumanity of the Hamas Human Shields Strategy that hamas deliberately embeds its fighters within civilian areas because it knows that either at gains immunity for its fighters or civilians will be hurt and hamas wants civilians to be heard because its only strategy for trying to survive this war is to generate sympathy and International Pressure on israel to stop. Now what we heard from the Israeli Military here is that our forces came under direct attack from that facility. Now have soldiers are coming under attack. Clearly, there is no time to give a warning for people to evacuate, having already said that the militants, terrorists were operating in the area. If soldiers come under immediate fire, they do have a right to strike back. And that is why we call on civilians to get out of places where hamas is trying to use them as human shields. So that hamas cannot do that any longer. But if israel knows that there are civilians there in the survivors were saying that there were drones that they had major white flags. I mean, doesnt that make israel reconsider dropping a 2000 pound bomb that kills half the members of an entire family, the army, when of course, consider whatever specific munitions are necessary for precip specific operation. And i cant comment on operational matters because im not a military spokesman, but we think it is deeply tragic, deeply tragic. The war that hamas has brought on the people of gaza by deciding to declare this needless war on october 7, were a 107 attacks and deliberately fighting from inside civilian areas. And hamas does not, because it knows how it is manipulating International Public opinion. It knows that if it hides under civilian areas and keeps moving widths, civilians as they evacuate to safer zones. It deliberately keeps them in danger for us, every Civilian Casualty is a tragedy and for hamas, it is a strategy. And yes, its a strategy were trying to thwart it. Does do that. And obviously were knows theyre a Terrorist Group. We saw what they did on october 7, but i think people, it also raises questions about the burden on the Israeli Government and the responsibility when there are civilians there. But i want to ask you about the announcement that we got from the white house today, President Biden saying that the United States is going to orchestrate airdrops of aid into gaza. Does israel really think that . But thats the solution to the humanitarian crisis that its to the point where youve to airdrop aid into gaza. Sure. If i could just comment on what we said before israel is of course, trying to uphold international law, but its trying to do it in conditions where no army in history has ever had to deal with a Terrorist Group so deeply embedded within civilian areas, and that poses child challenges that no military in the world has had to deal with, and israel has having to innovate new ways to try to mitigate civilian people understand that. Its also really difficult to watch your report where someone lost half the members of their family, members of this. Its heartbreaking. It is tragic as they got no warning. It is tragic that hamas declared this warrant is fighting this war from inside civilian areas. We didnt want this war. We didnt start this war. We didnt expect this war. Were fighting this war because im retreated with 253 hostages and told us it wants to do it again and again, and it will unless it is stopped. And so we understand, we have to now, as for the specific question of humanitarian aid we want to see as much humanitarian aid get into gaza to the people people who needed while making sure that hamas cannot steal it. Now thats why weve done on the one hand, expanded capacity at the israeli crossings. There is now more than double the excess capacity at israels crossings to get more aid in, as we speak right now. There are 300 trucks worth of humanitarian aid sitting on the gazan side of the kerem shalom crossing, waiting for the un to pick it up and distributed. The aid is getting in the problem is that the un is struggling to distribute that aid at the pace that israel is facilitating its entry into gaza. Okay. But theres also a lot of aden and the other side of the border where this was posted by the former the former humanitarian coordinator for the United Nations, who is now working for the Norwegian Group here. And he was saying that that is a that cannot get in. But i wanted increasing i want to get to a generally what how much is getting it. But on the fact that the us is now orchestrating airdrops to go into that, is that really the solution israel thinks is the way to get out of this, the way to help feed these people in gaza. Well, there were two questions. One is the question of aid getting into the gaza strip, and there is enough capacity at israels crossings to get in as much aid as the international center. Currently, theres not a no, but then theres a question of how aid is being distributed in slide gaza. And were talking about air drops into areas that are difficult to reach because they are active war zones, because hamas is still fighting in the Northern Gaza strip. And because these are dangerous areas, and weve saw what happened just the other day with those horrific scenes of the fourth convoy of the week trying to take aid into Northern Gaza and being mobbed by desperate civilians two then got killed in a stampede. So one option is to airdrop aid there was a Successful Pilot this week in cooperation with i believe jordan, the uae, france, and the United States to airdrop aid into gaza. And were looking into other ways to deliver aid into Northern Gaza and make sure again, it gets to civilians who need it while making sure hamas easier, safer, easier way to do this than just simply airdropping, get anything. The reason you saw that chaotic incident is people are rushing these trucks because theyre starving. I mean, its desperation in its fullest extent that youre watching and we hear from the idf saying, well, our forces felt that they were endangered and thats why they fired upon the crowd after firing and those Warning Shots thats what the idf said. They fired when people began to rush towards the russian soldiers because they have food and theyre starving. Well, i mean, why they were rushing that the situation actually is not good and theres not enough aid getting in the situation is definitely not good. We dont downplay that hamas has brought tragedy and disaster on the people of gaza by glaring this war. Now, its a unique challenge to work out how you distribute aid in an active war zone, where we know that the terrorist organization hamas, is hijacking aid, that the un agencies that are supposed to distribute aid have been covering up for hamas. And worse than that, have been relying on hamas protection for the ships, for the cargo i saw just now, i ms the satterfield at the State Department saying that one of the reasons erin aid convoy from the United States, one of the reasons we are seeing this chaos in gaza is that israel has been targeting the hamas socalled police as if a Terror Organization can have police. But were securing the convoy. So here you have the International Community admitting that until now, the United Nations has been reliant on hamas, a proscribed terrorist organization to secure humanitarian aid. And thats why its important that we have options like address whats the because i mean, obviously thats not an ideal situation for the United States and weve talked about this at length, but but it is an undeniable fact. Hamas is still in gaza. So what is the option for the United States . Whats the better way to get that aid in . Because right now, whats happening clearly is not working. Well add drops are one way where we can try to circumvent hamas and circumvent or nra by cutting them out of the aid distribution system. Because weve released audio examples, for example, a phone calls with people in gaza saying we know that unwra members are stealing aid. We know that its being diverted to hamas and a lot of the aid that has entered the gaza strip, by the way, yesterday, we had a near record, 260 trucks going into the company. Was it before october 7 . It was getting and it was hundreds of more than that close to find you have the capacity for 500 aid that is now getting in and we have the capacity for five and they dont have their homes, they dont have bakeries there in tents. Basically, you mentioned bakeries, for example, inside the gaza strip right now, there are 20 operational bakeries. Theyre producing 2. 5 million loaves of bread, pita breads, and roles every single day, there were penn weeks ago and thanks to coordination with the israeli army, we have doubled the number of operational bakeries inside gaza because its important that aid reach the people who need it and not the hamas Terror Regime that has brought such disaster on the people of gaza. And after hamas is brought down, i hope that the situation will improve for everyone. I think whats clear to everyone is its not enough aid thats getting into there. Not enough bakeries. Theres not enough supplies. A law states that want to send more should send more. We can facilitate its entry into gaza. I think thats a big question.

Sources are now telling us it was possible that a spy balloon is soon going to be in the hands of the fbi after some commercial fishermen found one, they believe off the coast of alaska cnns Katie Bo Lillis has this reporting and katie, obviously the question here is everyone remembers the last time the spy balloon was shot down in february 2023. Its hard to think that its been a year since that happened. What do we know about what these fishermen have now apparently discovered . Well, kaitlan, look at the expense of making a really bad pun. This is kind of the mystery catch of the day right now. What we know from our sources is that it commercial fishermen found something that they were concerned enough about that they contacted Law Enforcement about it. They took some pictures, they sent these pictures off to Law Enforcement. The fbi takes a look at these images and theyre worried nuff that whatever these fishermen found closely resembles enough a potential Surveillance Balloon similar to the type that china, as we know, sort of famously the chinese Spy Balloon Sort of famously blew off course and flew over the continental United States in february of last year, what these fishermen found to the fbi resembled closely enough that kind of surveillance its balloon that they want to get a hold of it. They want to analyze it. And so what we know is that fbi agents are going to be on the ground in alaska this weekend when the ship is expected to come into port, they are going to take custody of whatever this mystery object, maybe spy balloon, maybe not is and theyre going to take it back to the lab in quantico to analyze it and try to figure out what it is. All right. Katie bo lillis, i know youll stay on top of it and let us know what it is once that ship comes in. Thank you for that reporting. Thanks, kim ahead.

Ahh Mattress Vegas the story of sin city sunday at ten on cnn and we back with our 2024 lead today and with abortion, obviously set to play a big role in the 2024 election, as weve seen it do in the most recent ones former President Donald Trump is impressive its multiple times on where he stands on a potential federal abortion ban last night, he maybe got closer than he ever has been more and more. Im hearing about 15 weeks and i havent decided yet also we got it back to the states where it belongs. And by the way, a lot of states are taking very strong sense is everybody on both sides said it has to be in the states we did a very good thing. Lets talk about that comment there with our panel and s e cupp. I mean, i think thats the very definition of a Trial Balloon. Where hes saying, im hearing about something, but he doesnt actually come out in support of it. Well, hes been president before. Hes also running for president. He should probably have an idea of where he stands on this and he has been everywhere and nowhere, right . He takes credit for overturning roe v. Wade. He has slammed sixweek, ten, week 15 week abortion bans as unpopular politically. So i mean, its about time we know where he stands, but donald trump is not built on principles and convictions. Hes built on impulses and so the Trial Balloon i think is kind of him seeing where people are today if a change tomorrow, it could change in a month, could change near i mean, its remarkable because he does understand how unpopular politically he does owe a lot of these, these bands army, weve seen that reflected in the polls in many states, michigan, wisconsin. But it also is something the white house often tries to do is to remind you that it was trump who put the nation in the situation by putting the justices on the court who voted in favor or ruled in favor of overturning roe versus wade, Trump Doubles down on that. The Biden Administration should, as you said, remind the public of that. If we look at it just because i live in new york, new york three and the fact that we were talking more about immigration, liz, largely because the republicans cant talk about reproductive rights and especially after what well use the ruling in alabama, what i would say if were democrats is attach all the draconian measures to every republican that is. Running throughout the country, nationalize that issue, and i think its i think its winning for not just democrats, but it mobilizes independence. And a lot of republicans in suburban districts. Yeah, me, let me pop that Trial Balloon right now. Let me do that on this show, weve made history here look, joe biden is hoping, praying that this election is about Abortion Rights of 15 week ban is incredibly unpopular nationwide. We just had an ipsos poll about that earlier this week. I think it was Something Like 56, 57 oppose that idea. So if this election turns and Abortion Rights, this is where joe biden wants, like donald trump shouldnt be touching this issue. Thats why you should be toeing the line. He wants me talking about immigration. He wants to be talking about the economy. Voters trust him on those issues, on abortion, its one of the rare issues where more voters trust joe biden and its a really great opportunity for nikki haley and shes taking it. She was just out saying none of these guys know how to talk about this issue. She means guys, men but i think she also means specifically republicans. And shes been trying out a softer version. Shes prolife, but she has been trying out a softer Version Software rhetoric coming to a consensus on this issue. And thats smart because since 1976 when gallup first started polling abortion, abortion attitudes in this country have im not changed. They have remained fixed. The majority of people have always believed in abortion with some restrictions. Can i also do other change . This is something were biden obviously wants to talk about that as opposed to immigration, we saw him in the border yesterday. Its a very strong issue for democrats. One issue that, thats not strong for him as the economy, hes got to figure out how to the handle both of these things in the State Of The Union that is less than a week from today, we sat down with senator Bernie Sanders yesterday and he said he doesnt believe President Biden is talking about the economy in the right way. This is what he told me what he knew st. Louis say it, make it very clear he is going to stand with the Working Class to this country around that agenda that works for everybody, not just two people on doing that enough right now, in your view . Just like im a nerd, things that i think can be done. I think you have to say very loudly and clearly when he does, but not quite as strongly as i would like. My whatever we said on this issue is the metrics are interesting and they are important. But are you really speaking to the economic aspirations of americans, particularly young people . Can they buy a house . Can they buy a car . Can they move out of their parents apartment or home, right if especially when youre dealing with a lot of young voters who are concerned about whether or not they actually can come out and vote or should come out and vote if you really attach attack that, then i think you can continue to energize them. Bernie sanders isnt is maybe around the same age as joe biden, but a lot of voters didnt think he was old because he was Energy Around his candidacy on those very issues that touched a lot of voters. Think biden could do something hes a teensy bit older is add to but yeah, theyre right around the same age as far as voters, my age are concern, theyre both just old men. Look at the end of the day. Its very easy for Bernie Sanders or any politician who is not in charge of this country to say these things, he should be doing x with messaging, he should be doing why with messaging. But the economy just as something thats in voters minds and what we are seeing is some slight increases in economic Consumer Confidence and the real question is, are those slight increase is going to be enough, especially as they add up going to the election, that it can turn peoples minds on the economy, if not, theres just not, in my opinion, all a heck of a lot that joe biden can do because its just what are you going to just keep on with this rhetoric and hope that it changed peoples minds. They feel what they feel. One, heres the bind, right . I mean on the left, theres a big push to talk about democracy, which is in peril. I think thats really important. You have the luxury to talk about democracy when you have a good job, when you live in a nice town, its not being ravaged by drugs and opioids or immigration problems when you havent gotten a raise in five years, when you cant afford groceries, when youre worried about drugs in your town, when youre worried about you losing your Job Democracy is not on the top of your mind. The economy is, democrats have found a great way to talk about democracy. They have not found a great way to talk about the economy well see all of these could be themes in the State Of The Union speech. Next week well be watching very closely where we get a coordinate outfits then too.

Im Jeremy Diamond in tel aviv, and this is cnn hard to believe, but we are now just four days away from super tuesday. Of course that critical date on the primary calendar when voters and 15 states and one territory will help head to the polls. Tennessee is one one of those places where people will be voting. And its also the subject of this weeks the whole story with Anderson Cooper, our political commentator van jones, went back to his home state to look at the sharp swing to the right in tennessee Politics Democrats become republicans counties that they had gone blue for obama suddenly become red. Yes, absolutely. Thats 2010 thats the worst year for yall to get work because then they got they got a chance to redistrict that gave the republicans the power to gerrymander everything, correct . Thats correct. Did they use that power . They use it. Do they abuse it . They abused it was surgical precision. Tuesday nights results were decidedly republican. Its a bear down she is in our state. Republicans now have a super twothirds majority in the house and senate and in this moment, they start taking increasingly conservative Policy Changes around all sorts of policy areas. Guns, health care, abortion, but especially when it comes to Democratic Institutions like Voting Rights and distracting what happens in tennessee is going to happen in nearly any red controlled state after this time period. But tennessee is really leading the charge in many ways. And van jones joins me now, van, its fascinating to look into this and to this turn that tennessee has taken. I mean from when you started to when you finish this, what did you learn about why this happened . Well, i was especially powerful for me. I was born and raised in tennessee. I got my start in that building, that capitol building. I was an intern for jim navy in 1989. And so its still beautiful on the outside, but its a lot uglier on the inside. Now, it mean once the republicans redistricted, so they could get a Super Majority . They dont have to listen to democrats and they dont and they just have run over cities like nashville and memphis where little blue dots on that red map and taken power away from them. Theyve made sure they dont have any congressional representation. They wont move even with Red Flag Laws that even republicans want and it is just what happens when you get one party uncontested control it just go it goes nuts. It was it was really important to meet us to go home and talked to my family and talked to people id work with. How does it feel, whats going on. We also talked to grassroots people on the rightwing side and found that they also are frustrated with whats going on. Nobody can understand how we got so far away from tennessee. I grew up in where believe it or not, we had people like al gore representing the whole state well, what when you talk to those grassroots people who are on the right and theyre frustrated. I mean, whats the basis of their frustration . Well, they feel that theyve got local issues that arent getting handled properly there. They were worried about covid theyre worrying about school closures. Thats what animated then, but theyre not hostile toward Working Class folks. To memphis. They dont mad at them. But when it all gets weaponized up at the top, somehow their issues dont get handled locally, but everything gets weaponized against those blue cities. And so i think people who watch this is going to be really surprised to learn. We just talked about these Flyover States and once you pull the cover back, open up the hood, really fascinating dynamics happen, but it is a warning. You get one Party Control maybe on either side, and extremism can come in and nobody benefits well, and then also what weve seen also an alabama, we see this as well. There isnt that natural. Theres no natural bipartisanship because what its oneparty majority rule, they dont feel the need to work with others. They dont have to. Theyre not worried about being primaried or anything like that, and they can just enjoy the fact that theyre going to be they believe reelected on a permanent basis yeah. And it makes it worse for everybody because then he said the only primary you gotta get his further to the right. And so the party at the state level has gone further right. Than even the grassroots wanted to be. And nobody can do anything about it because of the gerrymandering is really, really fascinating for me. It was really heartbreaking. I grew up in a state. Our state house speaker, jim navy, where i worked for was aerobe. We had an era of American Democratic Party Speaker of the house of four decades and nobody ever raised as an issue because it was lets get along state and now thats completely van jones.

There are two major games this weekend and basketball with two historic first on the line i was Womens College Basketball Team and their phenom Caitlin Clark, also nba legend lebron james. They each have the chance to add yet another recordbreaking of accomplishment to their already recordbreaking careers were bob costas here with us to talk about it, bob, let me start. Caitlin clark, my personal favorite because ohio, theyre playing ohio state on sunday. She has a chance to break the alltime scoring record, not just for women, but men and women. And it seems like shes going to potentially hit that on sunday, which is going to be incredible to watch, especially given weve just learned that she is going to be declaring for the wnba draft yes. Youre already holds all of a significant womens record. She needs just 18 points to surpass pete maravichs total obviously, its apples to oranges, not just mens game versus womens game, but there was no threepoint shot when pete played at lsu, freshmen were in eligibly played only three years. Caitlin clark because played for and many more games, but still if youre talking about total points, its another amazing achievement for Caitlin Clark and she will head for the wnba shes going to be with the Indiana Fever because they have the number one pick. Theyve been a woeful team, but they had an abortion pick last year and got a very good player named aliyah boston. Now Caitlin Clark will join her the rookie pay scale and the wnba is only 78,000, but we wanted to throw any benefits for kaitlan because she already has deals with gatorade and state farm and nike and those national deals will only increase when she goes into the pros and you will not find a more basketball mad state than Indiana High School college and pro shes going to be a local and regional star. So it only builds and builds for Caitlin Clark, her pay cap when she goes into the wnba, its only 78,000. I mean, obviously deals inside, but shes only hurt the most you can make it 78 grand as a rookie, the top of the pay scale is 250,000 and then players sometimes go overseas. Its only a 40 game season from may into september in the wnba. And there are incentives what theyre in the sevenfigure areas. So its nothing big compared to what Caitlin Clark can make off the court, but her salary the first year is only 78 grand. Thats pretty striking, but lets also talk about what else were watching this weekend because lebron james, if he scores nine points tomorrow, he could be the First Nba Player To Reach 40,000 Career Points and also just did age 39 he already holds obviously the alltime record he surpassed Kareem Abduljabbar last season for that. And now hell go to 40,000. Its utterly remarkable how well he is playing. He first played in the nba at age 18, right out of high school in akron, ohio. Now, hell be 40 in december and hell play another season at least beyond this. Only recently a couple of days ago, he outscored the clippers of the fourthquarter. His team came back, lakers came back from 21 down, and lebron scored 19 in the fourthquarter of the clippers, 16, he had 34 and that game then the next game against the wizards, 31. So hill doublefigures, they always had doublefigures. So haley, 40,000 tomorrow night against the nuggets at home in los angeles yeah. Its just awesome to see also, given you mentioned that he entered the league at age 18. Now weve Caitlin Clark and to see the respect that he has for her is also just a remarkable moment. You see, you just how impressed he is by her and he himself. So impressed, yes hes not alone among nba players and former nba players, you know, 30 of the 32 games at Caitlin Clark has played this year around Womens College basketball have sold out, and its going to be a real boost for the wnba in general, interest in women mens basketball at the professional level when she enters the leaked awesome bob costas, great to talk to you about this will be watching closely to both of these games this weekend and for the rest of you will be back with more news in just a moment.
